+====== Theoretical Physics 3 (IPSP) ======
+>  Wiki with Exercises, Notes, Hints, and a Feedback-Forum
+>  Jürgen Vollmer, [[https://www.uni-leipzig.de/en|Uni Leipzig]], WiSe2025/26
+We will come to know different approaches to determine the equations of motion of mechanical systems, and to discuss the features of the solutions of these equations.
+===== Classes, seminars, and the tutorial =====
+The main ideas will be presented in **lectures**. However, your most important duty will be to work through a set of questions every week and to discuss your solutions with your peers:
+    * brainstorming with your peers prior to submission
+    * clarify open issues with the tutors in the **open physics room**
+    * present your solution in the **seminars**
+==== Classes ====
+^Time            ^Room  ^
+|  **Thu 1:15pm – 2:45pm**| Linnéstr, Theoretischer Hörsaal, room 294  |
+|  **Fri 3:15pm – 4:45pm**| Linnéstr, Theoretischer Hörsaal, room 294  |
+==== Seminars ====
+In the Seminars we meet with a small number of participants
+to present and discuss the [[#exercise_sheets|homework exercises]].
+Exercising your skills in presenting models and results of calculations is one of the key competences of physicists.
+It is important that you prepare carefully for the seminars,
+and embrace the opportunity to learn this early on in your studies.
+Times and locations of the seminars.
+^Time     ^Room  ^ Instructor  ^
+|  **Mon 13:15 – 14:45**| ITP, SR 210   | Jürgen Vollmer |
+|  **Tue 09:15 – 10:45**| ITP, SR 210   | Marc Casals |
+|  **Thu 09:15 – 10:45**| ITP, SR 210   | Marc Casals |
+/*
+==== Open Physics Room ====
+In the Open Physics Room peers help to cope with understanding the lectures,
+and provide help in dealing with homework exercises.
+This year Tom will be available to answer questions and provide help with the homework as follows:
+^Time     ^Room   ^
+|   **Tue 5 – 7 pm**|Linnéstr, seminar room 220|
+|   **Thu 5 – 7 pm**|Linnéstr, seminar room 220|
+<wrap em> Except</wrap> that next week, <wrap em>Oct 29,</wrap> the Tuesday session will be from
+<wrap em> 3 – 5 pm</wrap>, and Thursday there is no session since it is a bank holiday.
+*/
+===== Exercise Sheets =====
+Each week there will be a set of homework exercises.
+For each problem there will be a discussion page,
+and after the submission deadline I will publish the solutions to selected problems.
+On request I also offer suggestions for further study.
+The <wrap em> deadline</wrap> for homework submission will be
+<wrap em> Monday: 12:00</wrap>
+The exercise sheets will be submitted on the
+[[https://moodle2.uni-leipzig.de/course/view.php?id=58392|Moodle pages]]
+of this course.
+Registration in Moodle is connected to the enrollment in the course in AlmaWeb.
+Please contact me in the lectures to make a request to be manually added to the Moodle course.
+===== Exams =====
+The exam will be conducted on
+  * **Tuesday, 17 February 2026  —  1pm – 4pm**
+  * in Physics building, Linnéstraße
+  * Großer Hörsaal 205
+/*
+and
+  * **Friday, 22 March 2023  —  12:00am – 15:00pm**
+   * in Physics building, Linnéstraße, Großer Hörsaal 205  */
+These are 3 hour exams. Please take into account that
+  * you will be asked to arrive somewhat earlier for the setup of the exam and registration,
+  * we will not be done at 4pm sharp since we need time to collect the exams,
+  * we will have a **Stammtisch after the exam** where we can discuss how it worked out.
+The requirement for participation is that you have earned a TP1 exam admission in a previous year,
+or that you have reached a score of at least 50% in the exercises.
+==== Admission to the exam ====
+If you score at least 50% of the points on your exercise sheets you will right away be admitted to the exam.
+You can double the points scored in an exercise by presenting your solution in your seminar.
+More information about successfully running the course is available on a [[sheet:wise2023.24:work-ethics|separate page]].
+For <wrap em> preparation sessions</wrap> for the retake exam I booked
+  * SR113 in the ITP
+  * from Monday, Feb 9  till Monday, Feb 16.
+I will drop in every now and then to see if there are questions, and/or to suggest exercises.
+Moreover, there will be a <wrap em>consultation</wrap>
+   * on  Friday, Feb 13
+   * at  3:30pm
+   * in the Small Lecture Hall, Linnéstr. 5
+/* few sessions to discuss */
+to discuss open questions and strategies to solve exam problems.
+/*
+   * <wrap em> Tuesday, 5–7pm </wrap> we will address **line integrals**
+   * <wrap em> Wednesday </wrap> we will revisit **ODEs**
+*/
+===== Lecture Notes =====
+In my lecture notes I provide
+  * an exposition of the topics covered in my TP1 lectures,
+  * material for follow-up course work,
+  * material for further reading.
+Further details are available at the [[book:overview:start|Lecture Notes Overview]] page.
